"A quiet town's secrets unravel slowly"
A young teacher takes a job in a small Spanish coastal town, replacing a colleague who died under murky circumstances.

The pace is deliberate and the emotional temperature stays low-key tense rather than thrilling, so it rewards patience more than adrenaline. Performances and setting do a lot of the heavy lifting.
